Abstract:

Objective: To characterize physical violence by an intimate partner suffered by adult women treated in public urgency and emergency services in Brazil. Methods: Cross-sectional study using datathe VIVA Survey 2017. The proportions and confidence intervals of the characteristics of the victim, violence and aggressor were calculated. The associations of characteristics were identified through simple correspondence analysis (SCA). Results: More than half of the assisted women self-declared of black race/skin color (70.2%) and were the victim of a male aggressor (96.3%). Most violence occurred at home (71.1%) through physical force (74.1%). In the SCA, there is an association between the variables age group of 40 and 59 years, schooling of up to 08 years of study, alcohol consumption by the victim and violence through weapons (profile 2); in addition to the association of the variables age group between 18 and 24 years old, black race/skin color, lack of paid employment, aggression on public roads and more serious injuries (profile 4). Conclusion: There are different IPV profiles for women in different contexts. Confronting IPV requires Public Policies that consider these differences in the construction of actions that focus on women and perpetrators of violence.
